Just saw on Titus Tech Talk that torrents are last decade, and newsgroups is where it’s at for this stuff. Of course he didn’t elaborate, so I need some help here.

What is he talking about, and what are these groups that can I enter er, avoid?

    He’s talking about Usenet.

    You need a provider (giving you access to it), some indexers (communities that catalog and link to releases) and a download client, and you’re good to go. And you don’t need a VPN, because you’re only loading from the provider and not seeding anything.
